The opening game of the Ford Trophy 2019 will be played between Northern Knights vs Otago at the Seddon Park, Hamilton on Sunday.
Last season was clearly a reality check for the Knights as they ended up on the fourth spot with four wins from 10 games. Now, Skipper Joe Carter will not allow any room for the errors, the presence of Dean Brownlie and Daniel Flynn will surely motivate the side.
On the other hand, Otago had the best season last year with seven wins from 10 games, unfortunately, they were demolished by Wellington in the finals of the tournament. They would look forward to carrying a similar momentum this year as well to lift the trophy this season.
The match is set to begin at 7:30 AM IST
Date & Time: Friday,17th November 2019 at 7:30 AM IST
